[Here's the report from Thursday....] Today I moseyed – mostly because I didn’t have a whole lot of get up and go. We started out with a big climb out of the canyon that I was very slow on and then we flattened out and had great views of Mt. Jefferson and several other snow capped peaks. Sorry, no photos – I’ve been putting my energy into pedaling these days. Saw several hawks today and even heard one cry out.
Today I tried a new mantra: “Hills are my friends.”, I had to do this because there will always be hills we have to climb, so I might as well embrace them! I must say it is difficult at times…..
This was a fairly short “easy” day, though I’m still quite tired. It was easy because tomorrow we bike to John Day – 117 miles with 2 honkin’ big climbs. I hope to be in by 7:00 pm. I’ll be up by 4:15 am so that I can get on the road before 6am (much cooler then). Pray for tailwinds please! That’s all for now, I need sleep!
